In the peaks, if it means that the train runs to time and the following ones
are not delayed, then that's the right thing to do, as it benefits most
passengers. Yes, drivers should certainly be pleased to achieve that.


No, they should be unhappy about being told to be rude to their
customers In any case, isn't it quicker overall to let passengers
board and so make the platfomr clearer for disembarkers from following
trains?
